Not heard the other references you posted, but the letterbox comment is something folk have used for ages. 

It's not a far fetched analogy, but perhaps a little course for a senior MP.

I’ll second that, his remarks are totally indefensible.

Interesting you mention Ilhan Omar,  she had to apologise for anti Semitic remarks didn’t she ?

What are folks thoughts about her for those remarks ?

In case people missed it, I’ve agreed Trump’s remarks are totally indefensible, will his apology count like hers did ?

 

Has Trump apologised yet, last I heard he was suggesting the "victims" (if that's what they are) should actually apologise to him.

 

If he does get around to apologising, then of course his apology should count just as much as hers did. Both of them should know better considering their respective jobs, and bearing in mind we're supposed to be living in the 21st Century

No, especially not apologised yet, but in most folks eyes, he should do.

He probably should, or at least try and clarify what he meant (if he meant something else) - he won't though, as its probably increased his ratings amongst his target market, and he pretty much didn't give a fuck what people think about him, he'll end up spinning it, or trying to, that he's the one being wronged

Yes, I agree. I’d also say he’s chosen those “targets” for a specific reason.

Purely for balance...

If she did mate then that is completely out of order too....

It's just not in his psyche to ever admit he is wrong and god forbid apologise for anything. This will damage him but to what extent remains to been seen as his supporters are so brainwashed they will defend him at all costs

You know she did mate, and you know I’ve got the link

 

What did she say? I don't get antisemitism, especially in the UK as they represent a very low number of our population. However, I do not agree with some that say that to disagree with Israel's policy in regards to their borders, settlements and treatment of Palestinians is antisemitic, I believe it is not.

He ain’t apologising is he? He’s just gone balls deep in an interview.

It’s all in her tweets which she apologised for.

Doesn’t look like he is, unfortunately.

Trump is a racist. People who support him are racist. People who try to pretend that not being racist is "extremist" are also racist.

Its time we faced facts, there are a lot of racist people in society generally.  We've tried the softly softly approach - but these people persist. And have done for decades. Perhaps its time to actually straight out just stop tolerating them? Their views are abhorrent and have no place in society anymore. 

Have I read that right? People who support Him are racist? 

I don't support him, but I do get his "if you don't like it here, then fuck off". The other aspect isn't good. Almost a resignation tweet.

Not all people who support him are racist. I reckon all racists support him

That isn’t the issue here.

She made clear antisemitic tweets, which she ended up apologising for, no excuse.

I believe you

Not seen them, but if you say so

Winchester is right though, that anything anti Israel is deemed anti jew

I see where you and Winchester are coming from, but her tweets were nothing to do with borders,settlements etc even though she was a supporter of the BDS.

What would it actually take for some people to finally admit that the guy is a cock who's somehow wormed his way into the most powerful office on the planet?

It's ok to change your mind. Nobody is going to think any less of you. The opposite in fact.

We're going to look back at this moment in history with a sense of shame. Fuck me - you think his tweet was bad - watch the interview. He hasn't even got the balls to name the people he's talking about - just does his usually wormy, weedy, shambolic mess of an answer.

Fuck me - we might have had some incompetents running our place for the past decade - but at least they weren't outright cunts.
